Our bandmate and brother, Tony Kakaris, is giving the Big C a Big Fight. We want to try and help with some of the monstrous bills he and his wife, Marsha, are facing so they can concentrate on getting Tony better and back thumping the bass with us as soon as possible. The event is going to be held Saturday, April 6, from Noon to 8:00 p.m. at the Monroe Church of the Nazarene, 400 Macready Ave, Monroe, OH 45050 -- just a bit south of Middletown. The bands that will be performing (in no particular order) are Nightflyer, The Clay Hess Band, Tony Hale & Black Water, New County Grass, Branded Bluegrass, Haddix Family and Berachah Valley.

We are planning on lots of auctions and great food to go with the great music. We will be posting more details as we get them, but for now -- SAVE THE DATE: Saturday, April 6!
